Ethan in Cleveland

I hit 122mph in my new BMW m240i this weekend...i'm 51. Driving stupidly is not an age thing....

I'm guilty of at the same time assessing his play and also figuring out the math on signing with Buffalo again. He is going to want to be paid as a top 3 LB if not the highest. If he was brought back at the 10th highest I'm not sure many on this board would be opposed. However I think only a few people on here if any see him as a top 3 LB in this league. I guess Beane and McD will have to decide is it worth paying him top dollar for what he does do for the team. A five year extension doesn't even get him to age 30. They have the chance to lock up a captain and centerpiece of the defense for another half decade of his peak years. If they do who goes? You probably lose both Hyde and Poyer which at their age and coming off injuries seems inevitable now. Restructure Allen, White, Morse, and Miller and there probably is enough to sign Edmunds and play Oliver on his 5th year extension.

Nobody expects Edmunds to be perfect. Milano made plays later in the game. Edmunds did not. Those of us who are Edmunds skeptics have praised his play up until GB. Why can't the Edmunds apologists criticize him when he plays poorly?

You saw what most of us saw. It was his worst game of the season. He was the worst defender on the field until Poyer left and was replaced by Johnson. He was out of position most of the night. He really looked lost defending the run. Where Milano and other great linebackers shoot gaps and get underneath blocks, Edmunds can’t disengage from his blocker. He had a couple of ok plays on underneath passes where he made the tackle with no YAC. I agreed with picking up his option. If this is his worst game of the year and he rebounds back to how he played earlier then I’d be fine with an extension. I won’t shed a tear getting a 3 round comp pick for him either.

I'm still in the camp of Benford or White to safety largely depending on how White has recovered. Milano is too slow for safety and he is playing like an All-Pro now. No way he moves.

So they can draft another guy that gets cut and sent to the PS. I'd happily give up a 7th for a better back-up LB.

Tenn tried that with one of the best RB's in the league and it didn't work. It was an off night for the Bills D. We will see if Edmunds just had a bad game or if he regresses back to his two years of bad football. Jets have Garrett Wilson who is better than any WR the Packers had last night. Jets should try to stay balanced. Just don't see them able to sustain drives running the ball like the Packers did last night.

Depends. That is a lot to give up if it ends up being a rental for 10 games and a playoff loss. Give the Bears a 7th for Klein. He is better than any back-up LB on the current roster.

The fail occurred last season when he should have traded for Von Miller. Bills probably win the SuperBowl last season if he did. Many on here were advocating for it back then. This year no moves are needed. He set the roster up well enough in the off-season. The roster is loaded and they just went 6-1 and should really be 7-0. They have the best QB in the NFL, a top 3 WR, and a very good defense. What impact player are you going to get with $1.6M in in cap space? I'm sorry who is the bonified #2 WR you are getting in addition to OBJ? Because it has been a long time since OBJ was a good WR and he is coming off another ACL tear. OBJ is click bait. He will be lucky to make any roster this season let alone make an impact.

Getting gashed on the ground in a game or two happens almost every year to this McD defense. Its really hard to explain. Go back to year 1 and the Saints, last year against the Colts and Patriots, and now this game. He usually gets things corrected and they have had some great rush defense games too.

I will continue with your NBA analogy. NBA is all about matchups. Eagles have #1 pass defense in yards and #2 by YPA. Eagles have a QB with super high completion percentage, a big oline, and are decent at running the ball. All those factors could be matchup problems for Bills and KC. Like the Bills last year, the Eagles have faced some really bad QBs. So is their defensive ranking real or not???? Buffalo and KC still seem like the better team but I would not discount the Eagles so quickly.

I wore my Knox socks!

Quinn had 18.5 sacks last season. Agree Miller is better and Quinn is having a down year. But if Buffalo traded for him you would be excited he was added to the team. 49ers are far more than CMC, but I Agree Bills and Chiefs are both better.

Here is why. Taron Johnson is a better football player than any of the backup linebackers. If they had kept Klein I suspect you may have seen more 4-3 played.

That is a more accurate description of what they did. They also played Poyer and Hyde in the box more with White. Now they are two deep the vast majority of the time. That is much harder to do than you think. You are correct but its very hard to do and even the best turn and run with the WR especially that far down field.

He scored a TD on a handoff. He was dead to rights and he completely outran a guy to the pylon. I'm fine with Cook getting more opportunities. Keep spreading the ball around. Hey here is a thought, how about a scree pass? Not a single one all game. Not to a RB or a TE.

Ok that rarely happened. White played his side of the field. It was only a few rare games that he lined exclusively against an opponents top target.

Hamlin is in for Hyde. Johnson and Neal have not played well at safety. They need Poyer back and healthy down the stretch.

They have 2 sacks tonight

Killing??? Hmmm...

This game should have been over midway through the fourth. They will still win but the starting defense should be on the bench not forced to play these snaps.

Dude we are watching the game What is your point?

Undisciplined bull####

Thought so too

QB sneak this
